Anatomy License
The Sydney Clinical Skills and Simulation Centre has held a NSW Department of Health Anatomy Licence since 2005. We are fully equipped to run anatomical training and surgical courses and are experienced in the coordination and delivery of such workshops.
The experience gained through the use of human tissue is irreplaceable and the fresh frozen specimens sourced by the SCSSC are of the highest quality and screened for pathogens. This permits the medical community to gain valuable experience in surgical techniques in a modern skills training laboratory.
Clinical Skills Training Rooms
Five rooms, each 20 msq in area, are suitable for a wide range of procedural skills training for groups of up to ten students. Two of the rooms can be combined into a large multipurpose skills training or seminar room for 30 people. All rooms have vinyl floors, sinks and a range of adjunct equipment including chairs, tables and clinical props. Touch-screen controlled audiovisual units and projection screens support a range of software and enable remote viewing from other locations.
